High exposure to nevirapine in plasma is associated with an improved virological response in HIV-1-infected individuals.

TL;DR: A high exposure to nevirapine (in a twice daily regimen) is significantly associated with improved virological response in the short as well as in the long term, suggesting that optimization of ne virapine concentration might be used as a tool to improve virologic outcome in (antiretroviral-naive) patients treated with nevirAPine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antiretroviral therapy with the integrase inhibitor raltegravir alters decay kinetics of HIV, significantly reducing the second phase

TL;DR: Plasma viral loads were 70% lower at initiation of second-phase decay for individuals taking raltegravir than for those taking efavirenz, challenging the current hypothesis that second- phase virus originates from infected long-lived cells, as an integrase inhibitor should not impact on viral production from this cell population.
Journal ArticleDOI

The 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) elicits cross-functional opsonophagocytic killing responses in humans to Streptococcus pneumoniae serotypes 6C and 7A.

TL;DR: It is suggested that immunization with PCV13 has the potential to induce cross-protective responses to related serotypes not directly covered by the vaccine.
